[Beserker]

I went to Target today. There was only one dreamcast left, but it was still priced at $55. I bought it and hold the receipt for next few weeks and see if the price drops.

[Absolute Zero]

BIG THANKS to...

shuki for the amazon deals.

chie9 for the EB deals.

mr. snowmizer for the Dreamcast console deal.

[Trigger]

If Target is out of the consoles in your area, I just found a Best Buy where the guy agreed to give me the price match even though Target didn't have any in stock... it's not going to happen everywhere, and this should be kept low profile, but if you talk to the right guy in the Video Games dept. and you're cool with him, he might like you enough to go ahead and do that. All they have to do is call Target to verify that they had that price advertised. :)

[Dzire]

Trigger if you're a good boy, I'll buy you whatever you want..

[Beserker]

So has anyone else have been able to get DC for $40? If so where? $55 is a good price (which I live at - Nothern Virginia), but $40 is even better. Oh...I just order a brand new Soul Calibur for $15. I probably will get Resident Evil Code Name Veronica too, it's only half as expensive the PS2 version. Keep the deals coming!

[Trigger]

[personal-private-nobody else can see]:sigh: Desiree... I got your message and we can talk whenever you get back in town. Just let me know when that will be, but let's stick to the plan and not talk till then. I'm not even sure I want to know where you're going out of town to or why. I still love you... don't make ^this^ a habit though. :)[/personal-private-nobody else can see]

I did buy a Dreamcast though and the morons at Target told the Best Buy people that it was 55 bucks at clearance... still cheap, so I snapped one up. I also bought 13 games from BB and Circuit City. I plan to start picking up used ones after the Christmas season when everyone is replacing their Dreamcast stuff with Xbox or Gamecube stuff. Anyway - you might get lucky enough to get a cool Best Buy guy to do the same price match for you - the Best Buys around here have tons of them and I'm sure they want to get rid of them.

[Trigger]

http://www.dragon.ca/

This place is having a huge clearance on Dreamcast (Playstation and N64 games as well) games and lots of stuff is super cheap - I don't know how their shipping prices go, but it's in Canada and I'm pretty sure they ship to the US.

Has anyone seen these incredible prices for dreamcast consoles on the west coast? Every location near me has long gotten rid of the systems.
Thanks

[MDawg957]

I got this email from Capcom, and there online store is currently selling ALL of their Dreamcast games for $19.95 You can you to there shop by clicking here (http://www.capcom.com/dreamcast.xpml)

[Absolute Zero]

All of the above has been added to the thread. You may now delete your posts. Thank you!!

[Dr. Sarcasm Returns]

Hey all,

I just posted this in the Other Bargains Thread...but I thought I'd mention it here too. I don't know if this affects the local Sears near you, but the store near me is having a Super Saturday Sale. They are selling NEW Dreamcasts for $30 and all DC games and accessories are 75% off ticketed prices. Hope this helps a few holiday shoppers here!

BTW, the sale begins and ends today!
I'm sorry I couldn't post this sooner.

[harperr]

NFL 2K1 is $8 at Amazon.com.

[Beserker]

I went to Target today, I scaned my dreamcast box (copy) on the scanner, it rang up $19.94. Talked to manager about that because I got it only 2 weeks ago. She gave me a run around saying..."um...well you bought it when it wasn't on clearance and now it's on clearance so we can't give you the difference."

So I asked her about then returning it and buying it back. She says well...you can't do that because the computer will recognize you returning and buying. I said screw it.

But it appears to be a great deal if you can find one at Target or get a price match.

[tofu]

Just saw a post in another board that said that Circuit City would be selling Dreamcasts w/ 3 games for $69 on Black Friday (Day after Thanksgiving)

[Wazootyman]

Anyone know a place with a deal on Typing of the Dead? I was planning on checking out CompUSA tommorow, would it be worth my time?

[Apocrypha]

Just got typing of the dead from amazon for 19.99 w/ free shipping if you can touch type this game is lots of fun.

[PaulV]

Mat Hoffman Pro BMX is 19.99 at CompUSA. And NFL Quarterback Club 2001 is $7.98 at Circuit City. (Both are the B&M prices).

[Ezra]

Amazon also has CT and CT2 at that reduced price and they also lowered the price on the console to 49.99. Anyone know if they will refund the difference if you purchased one in the last two weeks?

[kevin75]

for anyone who is interested, i just went by CC with the intention of buying the DC with the 3 sports games to price match on friday and save the hassle. lo and behold when the guy rang it up it was already marked at 69.99 even though it was marked on the shelf at 99.99. he said oh well and gave it to me and so i happily walked out of the store.

A few questions...to anyone that can answer them really but since you actually did this kevin:

What are the three sports games?

Are they returnable/exchangeable?

Is CC selling the DC w/o the sports package for 50 dollars? (I want to pick one up for myself and one as a gift for my sister, but she won't be into those games.)

[tenjin]

Seems SEGA has officially lowered the prices on the Dreamcast consoles/packs CNET article (http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-7942012.html).

I've also heard people walking into ToysRUs since yesterday and picking up the console for $49.99 and the Sports Pack for $69.99 (new price not marked on the shelf or advertised but rings up as such). Picking one up today!

Edit: Just picked one up (mfg July 2000). Anyone interested in picking one up really should try to get them today so you avoid the Black Friday rush and get them before they may run out since its being advertised...

1. NFL 2001, NBA 2001 and World Series 2001
2. No, the games are pre-packaged in the box so you can't trade it for something else.
3. Go to a ToysRUs store. I imagine it should be $49.99 if CC has it. If you get it on Friday at BestBuy, you get a free game though (Sega GT). Many stores should reflect the new lower price of $49.99.

[seeyouauntie]

Thanks for the info. I went to Toys R Us and they rang up w/ Friday's prices. I got one regular DC and a sports package. I'm not into the sports majorly but for 20 more bucks, three games, its such a deal and my roomates at school will dig this. I don't plan on getting an Xbox or GC at least for a while, but I feel like I just bought a system that launched...except there are hundreds off great titles and they are dirt cheap! Awesome!

[Beserker]

You should do that! My wife does it all the time at Target and Walmart. She just takes the receipt to where they do returns and asks for a refund of the differance. If your store won't do it then I would return it and buy another. How is the computer going to know you're buying another if you pay cash? :)

I tried to return, now they say it's opened, so no return can be accepted. And I don't think I can get any difference from Target now the Dreamcast price has been lowered. Well...I learned. I will never shop from Target again.

[Thrillhouse]

Hey just thought I might inform you all. I went to Bust Buy this morning and they had tons of games on sale until Monday. I picked up Unreal Tornament for 8.99. They also have the news sports titles for 29.99. If this is a repeat post, I'm sorry I didn't read they all, but wanted to tell you.

[Tigger]

Circuit City had "Sword of the Berserk" and "Legacy of Kain" for 9.99 each when I went yesterday. So. California Area. :)

[Thrillhouse]

Sears-

Shenmue-19.99
World Series Baseball 2K2-19.99
Space Channel 5-9.99
NBA 2K1-9.99

Circuit City-

Sega Marine Fishing-9.99

Best Buy-

VMU-7.99
Colored VMU-9.99

I hope I didn't repeat anyone else’s posts :D.

[Absolute Zero]

Thread has been updated.

In instances of Sears, Target, CompUSA, and others that are clearancing out games...I will note that you should check your local store for availability. And I know, that many stores are doing this, but if you visit a CompUSA or Target or Sears you have to admit that the pickins are very slim.

I don't mean to sound ungreatful, but PLEASE delete your posts. I will create a new thread if we can't keep this confined to one page....and yes I know that the first post is very long and takes up a siginificant amount of the first page.

Thank you for your understanding and support!!

[JaxComet]

They had the Dreamcast console at Best Buy for $50. This also included a game. Is the system going away? How are the games compared to PS2, XBOX, and GameCube?

[dek]

Dreamcast sports bundle is available @ Amazon right now for 69.99. You have to search for it though, browsing doesn't work.

I went to Sears yesterday and they didn't have the 70% off sale, damn and they had Seaman and Skies of Arcadia too.

[too much]

Midway's Arcade Greatest Hits 2!

Just picked this up yesterday at Best Buy for $9.99! Didn't even know this was out. Includes: Spy Hunter, Rampage, Moon Patrol, Gauntlet, Paperboy and 720.

[ClarkKentKY]

Read about that Midway game on IGN's boards. I think i might pick it up if i can find it anywhere.

[gettinbranded]

Pretty Hot

I just picked up NFL 2K1 for $8.00 at Amazon. Picked up Blitz2000 for $10.00.


Anyone know an online place to pick up a steering wheel for my d'cast?

[RandyC]

I have a extra new in box DC steering wheel.

[cornflakeguy]

Well I went on an uninformed spree, and bought:

Unreal Tournament
Test Drive 6
Sega GT
Slave Zero
Midways Greatest Hits, 2

All were 9.99 ea. at Best Buy, albeit 2 different ones.

And in my opinion....they all SUCK! Oh my gosh!

ONLY Midways GH 2 has any value. And thats just because of Gaunlet.

I think I was mesmerized by Jet Grind Radio and Crazy Taxi, so I just melded the graphics in those games with the titles of the above games. Well, brotha, that don't work. Slave Zero is the biggest bust! I would have expected better (and have seen better) on the dang PsOne for goodness sakes.

Be careful with what you buy!!

I bought Test drive and was pretty disappointed...but I like Sega GT. Just wish I had a steerring wheel. I also got the sega smashpack--the wifey loves that. Columns, Swirls(?) and Sonic.

I've got Crazy Taxi, Blitz (loved it at the arcade), and NFL2k1 coming. 2k1 is my only worry...

You sure about this?! I've not heard of it, and the Midway site (www.midway.com) doesn't list it in either their catalog or their "coming soon" section. If true, it would be worth it just for Gauntlet IMO, but I can't find any confirmation at any site that this title even exists. :)

Check out page 7 of this week's Best Buy ad. The game is listed there along with the 3 other Dreamcast games that are $9.99 this week.

[Pato1]

Sears in Fairfax, VA (Fair Oaks Mall) had a table "clearance" table of DC consoles ($49) and DC games (Most were $19 tho), jump packs ($19). I picked up Ecco, WWF Attitude, Ready 2 Rumble 2.

Best Buy in Springfield Mall. VA has tons of the Midway GH2.

[Exzavier00]

Some Clearence DC games at Target are
Jet Grind Radio 4.94
Shenmue 9.90
Star Wars Demolition 9.90
Baeball 2k1 9.90
Razor Scooter 9.90
tony hawk 2 13.90
sega bass fishing 4.90

I believe that shenmue and baseball
just dropped to 9.90 this week.
At the store I work at we have like
15 copies of shenmue.

Oh well.

All of the previous posts have been updated.

Just a few notes.....

As you all know, the selection of games at your local discounts stores are growing smaller and smaller as the days go on. Target and Sears in particular are a crap-shoot at this point. Sears is blowing out their inventory and so is Target and they will not be adding any new titles or ordering existing titles. The same goes for Walmart and other discount stores. This doesn't mean there aren't any deals out there, but they will most likely be in the electronic stores like Best Buy, Circuit City, and Electronics Boutique. Not to mention the online stores too. My only concern is not to get into a constant hassle of adding and deleting titles and changing prices all the time because one person finds shenmue at their target for $19 and another finds it for $9. This sames me alot of time.

Also, thanks to those who are deleting their posts to keep the thread short. I will most likely be creating a new thread if this one spills over to a 3rd page. I like to keep things trim, and I also acknowledge that the first post is quite long and takes up a good chunk of the first page. I think I've typed enough....Until next time.

BestBuy had the following for 9.99 today (12/90

4X4 Thunder
Test Drive V-Rally
Test Drive Le Mans
Nfl2k
Unreal Tournament
Virtua Tennis
Toy Commander
Metropolis Street Racer
Sega GT
Sega Smash Pack
Demolition Racer

Those were the ones I could find. I picked up 4X4 Thunder and Test Drive V-Rally and they both are very cool. I like test drive better though.

Anyone know where I might be able to pick up an S-video cable for cheap? None to be had at my local Walmart, Costco, or Best Buy.

An online store would be fine, too. Seems that they go for $6 to $6.50 including shipping on ebay, so I'm just trying to beat that.

Thanks.

[wildcatkid]

I went to pick up a dreamcast tonight and ran smack into a brick wall. I can't find any. Anywhere. I pretty much told my little brother I was going to get him one and now they appear to have vanished. I would appreciate all the help you guys can muster. Thanks.

Who would have thought the hottest toy was a gaming system at the end of its lifecycle??

[spankyj]

Thanks for the list....but there was some things that I found to be outdated.
Amazon will not allow you to order the official Dreamcast Fishing Controller.
The Dreamcast fishing controller listed for EBgames is no longer backordered.
Crazy Taxi is only 9.99 at KB instead of the 17.99 listed.
Crazy Taxi 2 is only 9.99 as well. (Not listed, but a good deal nonetheless)

Keep up the good work.

WildCatKid - keep checking. Some will show up locally.

[Oliver]

eToys.com has Crazy Taxi 2 in stock for $9.99, $14.78 shipped.

My local Game Stop had a 'Nyko' (I believe) S-Video cable for $2.99. I was very surprised. But I had to take the first one back, the right audio was bad. I got another one, and it's fine. Maybe they have them for that price on the web as well.

Otherwise, I was going to buy a $19.99 one from Best Buy. It had the 'AV Multi-Out' for a PS2, N64, and Dreamcast on one unit, all funneled into a single cable. It was neat, but I took it back once I got a working $2.99 one.

Good Luck!

I saw Vanishing Point, Dave Mirra BMX and Star Wars: Demolition for $9.99 at Circuit City this week.

I also saw Max Steel and Mortal Kombat Gold for $9.99 at Best Buy along with the others that reptile590 mentioned.

[Pato1]

Kingstowne Walmart in Alexandria, VA has several copies of Qbert for $9.99.

The Best Buy in Springfield Mall, VA has several copies of Toy Commander, Championship Surfer, Razor Scooter, Test Drive V Rally and demolition racer for $9.99. Tons of Virtua Tennis copies too.

The Funcoland in Springfield Mall was :thmbsdwn: Saw Soul Calibur for $32.99. It also has a decent used selection but their prices are steep for most stuff $14.99 and up for used! They had used DC keyboards $7, fishing controller $19, refurb/used DC console $49 and new DC console for $59. Didn't see any MC driving gear. They also had Nyko RF, video cables for $2.99

[Grimm1]

Sorry spankyj...you are of course correct. To me it looked like a typo. I should have checked before saying anything.

Best Buy had Test Drive 6 and Test Drive La Mans for only $9.99 each when I was there yesterday. Be careful though as IGN rates TD 6 as a 3.4 but TD La Mans they give a 9.4 and if they have TD V that would be a good deal rated at 9.

Thanks for the heads-up. Looks like they don't have it on their site, but there is a Babbage's near me (and apparently, they're related).

[cornflakeguy]

An interesting price...

Best Buy has "Jo Jo's Bizarre Adventure" for $4.99.

Yep, $4.99. Can't complain there.

CFG!

[Pato1]

I've found that Compusa B&M have their Dreamcast Nyko accessories priced at $0.99. Picked up 2 Nyko thunderpacks for $2. Saw some Nyko RF modulators for .99 too

[naitram]

Anyone know where to get that stupid Midway Arcade Classics 2 with Spy Hunter and such on it? They had like 30 of them at Best Buy a month or so ago - so I blew off buying one - then the next week they were all gone! And there isn't even a space for them now. Were they banned? ;)

[sniper308]

yep, just picked up JoJo's Bizarre adventure for $4.99 myself at Best Buy (hoping to get a DC for Christmas), and Unreal Tournament ($7.99 after price matching my bestbuy.com order that didn't go through ... long story posted under the store forum)

hoping these games return the $13 investment well. :johnwoo:

[spankyj]

Naitram -

Keep checking back at your local Best Buy. They were at mine about a month ago too, I thought about it but decided not to buy. Then by the time I wanted it, all signs of the game and the game were gone! However, I went in to my local BB this week, and their shelves were stocked full of games for the Dreamcast, Midway's #2 included. I didn't pick one up(they had like 10 copies), but I think that I will get one today. :)

Moral of the story - keep checking, it will show up more than likely. You could also try a used video game store in your area. I don't imagine this is a game that everyone keeps for a long time, so I'm sure you might be able to get a used copy even cheaper. Enjoy!

[cornflakeguy]

Yeah concerning the Best Buy 'magic restocking'.

Every thursday I go to some Best Buys around me and see one or two titles that just explode in numbers. Like 20 to 30. Last week it was JoJo's Bizzare Adventure and 4X4 Wheeler (or something like that).

I wonder what it will be tomorrow!! :)

JCPenney.com has a couple deals that can be combined with coupons:

$15 off 75 use code SAVE4
Free shipping use code WELNS
Free shipping use code WELEM11

Sega Controller $9.99 ($10 plus change shipped with code)
NFL 2K2 $19.99 normally $40 in most places
Sonic Adventure 2 $26.99
NCAA Football 2K2 $26.99
VMU $12.99
Chu-Chu Rocket $12.99

The rest of the games seem pretty normally priced... VMU and Chu-chu aren't the cheapest I know... NFL 2K2 is an awesome price...

[ClarkKentKY]

Bestbuy.com has sonic adventure for 9.99. make it for in store pickup and you avoid shipping costs.

Picked up 2 more controllers. $10 is my Buy It Now price, apparently. I haven't been able to find new Sega controllers for less than $15 (until now).

Charcoal color controllers are $9.99 at EBgames.come as well, except you pay a couple bucks to ship them. However, only the charcoal ones are on sale for some reason, and not the other colors.

[Pillowhead]

Wherehouse Music is trying to get of all their video games. I saw several different system's games on sale for 9.99.

For Dreamcast Lovers I saw the following

ALL 9.99
Quake III Arena (Picked it up)
Rainbow Six (picked it up)
TrickStyle (Picked it up)
Silent Scope
Soul Fighter
Zombie's Revenge
Typing of the Dead
Blue Stinger


Several More. Be sure to check these stores out, I know I've looked a lot of places and the pickings are getting slim. It was nice to get Quake III though, reg price is about $40 still on that one.

Check Mediaplay for Sonic Adventure. Mine had them stickered at 9.99, rang up at 19.99 at the register, but the cashier changed it (and she completely crushed the case trying to get the security thing off - anyone know where to get replacement cases?)

I used the WELNS code for the free shipping and it accepted it online when I paid for it (no error codes). But I then received a confusing email that said:

The total amount of your order is not available at this time. You will receive an email invoice in a few days that will contain detailed totals. There will also be a printed invoice with your merchandise.

I wonder if JCPenny.com is going to gouge me on shipping? How did you folks fare? thanks

[ClarkKentKY]

weird. Glad i skipped it. let me know how it turns out.

[spankyj]

Pato1...You might want to check out your local Bestbuy. Apparently, some of the 2kwhatevers are going on sale. I returned my NFL2k1 that was bought 2 weeks ago to pricematch the present CC sale of it for only 6.99. When the cust. rep was ringing it all, it showed the regular price of NFL 2k1 as 9.99. The sign in the store still shows 19.99. So, I picked up a copy of NCAA2k2 and asked for a price check. The rack showed it as 39.99, but it rang up at 19.99. At that price, a real steal for me! Online it has the 2k1's at 9.99 also, so that is the everywhere price. NCAA isn't available online, so you'll have to go to the store. I forgot to check the other 2k2's(too many people) at the store, the website only lists MLB2k2 as reduced(to 19.99) .

Hope these deals help. Very solid price on the NCAA imho, will try and get a store price on the tennis 2k2. Happy hunting!

[Pato1]

I received my JCPenny.com order for DC NFL 2k2 & controller. No shipping charges appeared on the shipping invoice despite the ambiguous confirmation email that mentioned DC games/accessories did not qualify for the special promo codes. So the codes do work for the DC games.

I am making it a habit of checking Best Buy now as their stock is in a very fluid state. Sometimes they have tons of games, sometimes they are cleaned out.

[jhiter24]

Does anyone know where to get a new fishing real pretty cheap now? Amazon is always out now.

[sniper308]

Check out Circuit City ad ... several DC games listed for $8.99 including Sonic Adventure, Sega Marine Fishing and some of the sports games ... :johnwoo: ... the CC I went to did not have a lot, but good for PM'ing. I PM'd Sonic at Best Buy & hit the magic combination of things to get the $5 survey credit

[dancinns]

Check out your local Sam Goody/Musicland. The one in Eureka has mainly the 2k2 titles left and most of them were going for $20. They also had VMUs for $10. Check out the PSX games also if you have one...they tend to be on the cheap side also.

[Apocrypha]

Holy Score! go to your Target especially out of the way ones mine appears to have put out some games from the back.
Dc titles all 9.99
NFL 2k2
NBA 2k2
Matt Hoffmans BMX
Sonic Adventure 2

For 40 bucks I got 4 sweet! games

[sniper308]

FYI, looks like www.bestbuy.com has removed most DC games/accessories, etc from their site. The link to DreamCast under video games has been removed. There are a DC few games under the weekly specials... looks like you can get to more titles using a search for dreamcast

[Pato1]

For those in the WashDC area...Target B&M in Alexandria, VA (Potomac Yds) has a bunch of copies of DC game bargains for $4.90- $10

NHL2k $4.90, Jet Grind Radio $7.99, Marine Fishing $7.99
Tony Hawk I $9.99, Unreal Tourney $7.99, Toy CDR.

[eebuckeye]

gexpress.com now has Soldier of Fortune for DC for $19.00, the cheapest I have seen it... Expect incredibly slow load times, but I still wanted this game...

[Pato1]

www.kbtoys.com has the DC Sonic Bundle for $79.99

The Sega Dreamcast Sonic Bundle features a Dreamcast Console, a blue VMU, Sonic Adventure game, Sonic Shuffle game, and a demo of Sonic Adventure 2. Item Number: 110542

I still think that the $5 KIDSLINKS code may still work

[kevin75]

if you have an electronics boutique near you i would recommend trying there. i got a VMU, virtua tennis, midway greatest hits 2, virtua athelete, and another game that i can't remember for about $50. they had many cheap used games.

which B&M stores still carry dreamcast hardware and games?
seems like most of the ones around here have stopped completely.. and I was avoiding going into the mall to go to electronic boutique or babagges.. I just needed to pick up a couple extention cables an a svideo cable.. I guess Ill probably get them at consoleaccessories.com, unless anyone knows a better (read: cheaper) place.

[Joe Schmoe]

Picked up two 6-button Dreamcast controllers with built-in rumble for $9.99 each at Software, Etc. They're made by Innovation, and they're not licensed by Sega or carry any official seal of approval. They do work though, so they make good 3rd and 4th controllers for games like Virtua Tennis. They have a switch to turn the rumble on and off, and another switch to go from 4-button control to 6. I got a blue one and a black one.

[sniper308]

twikoff,


my local funcoland has the S Video cables by nyko for $2.99 might be worth checking. I'm using one and it works well ...

I too need an extension cable & I forgot to look when I was at funcoland.

I've seen stuff still at Babbages, Electronic's Boutique, and Circuit City. I picked up my two extension cables and rumble pack on ebay fairly cheap. EB and Babbages seems to still be selling 3rd party stuff for full price.

i went by electronic boutique and kaybee tonight..
kaybee didnt have any DC stuff left.. and EB had the svideo cable, but no extention cables.. they wanted 7.99 for the svideo cable.. but since I couldnt get the extention cables there, I skipped it.. Im just going to order a couple extention cables and the svideo cable from consoleaccessories.com the svideo cable is cheaper there.. and if I have to pay shipping for the extention cables anyways, I might as well just go ahead and get everything from them..
next I think Im gonna start looking at the deals on the different controllers and guns.. they had several at eb that were marked down repeatedly.. thats one nice thing about having a discontinued game system.. extremely cheap hardware, if you can find it :D

[Trevor]

I believe that their cheap controllers and $19.99 NFL2K2 were mentioned earlier, but now (in addition to those) they have Chu Chu Rocket for $4.99.

Also, free shipping with code 'welem11'.

And some really cheap jeans too.

[tanman]

interact jump pack for 4.99 at EB as well as EBgames.com

Toy Commander $5.50
Sega Marine Fishing $5.50
Crazy Taxi $6.90
Crazy Taxi 2 $13.90

btw... this thread is a great post.. but pretty much all the bargains listed are out of date.. and no new ones have been added in over a month?

[Absolute Zero]

I apologize for the lack of updating. I have been in Canada since just before Christmas and I will not had the opportunity to update until Saturday.

HERE IS MY DILEMMA:

Regarding things being out of date.....

We are getting to a point where pickings at many store are slim to none. Target has pretty much gotten rid of all their Dreamcast merchandise. The only stores with consistent availibility are either online or at stores similar to Electronics Boutique.

I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!

I need to know what stores to eliminate from the list. I also need to know what titles are no longer available at most stores (both online and B&M).


I will update the above posts in a this thread. And most likely on Sunday you will see a new Dreamcast deals posting. Again, I apologize for my absence. I look forward to your input!!

Ab Zero this thread has served well but like has been stated the pickings are getting slimmer out there.
I think rather than try to list games at specific prices the thread should just be started anew with suggestions for where to shop and then obviously the deals that we post

Thanks Apocrypha. I appreciate your input. My biggest dilemma is figuring out how to make the thread as useful and user friendly as possible. Besides EB and Gamestop B&Ms, I find online stores having the best opportunity for good deals on games. I feel bad that I don't have a better solution, but I don't know what else to do.

Again, if any of you have suggestions please pass them my way via this thread or by email. Thanks again for all of your support!

No thank you! Youve done a great job with this thread and passed on some great deals. Slim pickings or not Ive gotten plenty out of your threads. I think we all know this wont be updated like it was in its heyday but you shouldnt be hearing any complaints.

[mjlukich]

Absolute Zero: A very big thank you from me as well! This thread has helped me acquire a DC system, accessories, and about 20 games in the past month, all at blowout prices. I appreciate your efforts. :)

[Absolute Zero]

I have begun consolidating the thread. You will not see individual titles under stores that have limited availability and some online stores that show titles but do not have them in stock.

[bfrank]

I found the interact quantum fighter controller with rumble pack at Circuit City for $17.96 +10% rebate!

www.circuitcity.com


Not the greatest but is you look for a controller and rumble seperate it is hard to beat.

[Breakfast with Girls]

EBgames and KBkids are the only sites that have decent prices on new games (with the games in stock) anymore online. I've found some decent deals in person at Electronics Boutique and Toys 'R' Us.

Of course, there's always eBay and Half.com.

[Deadpool]

I wanted to thank Absolute Zero and many others who have helped compile this thread. I was given a DC a week ago and am now enjoying it once again. I originally had one on the launch day 9-9-99 and really missewd it once I gave it up. With so many quality games under $ 10 I'll be playing DC games for quite a while. Plus I won't have a heart attack when my 2 year old son wants to "play" with it. He's the main reason I didn't buy a x box ;) Thanks to all :)

Update: deal is dead. That didn't last very long.

At my local Target (Bowie MD) I picked up Tennis 2k2 and Crazy Taxi 2 for 9.99 each. The Tennis was marked 20.99, but I asked the guy to do a price check and it came up to 9.99.

[Pato1]

Thanks deadpool! Been waiting for the tennis 2k2 price drop at Target.

[stevevt]

Wow.

I just got a partial cancellation notice for the order I made at kbtoys the other day. They cancelled the vmu and controller, and are sending me the game I ordered. How nice of them. -rolleyes-

So, I ordered the following for $15:
* a game
* a memory card
* a controller


I just got off the phone with their CS. They were "nice" enough to credit me back shipping on my order. They also sent a $5 coupon along with the partial cancellation e-mail.

So, I'm getting the following for $10
* a game

1-877-452-5437 = their number

Lame!

I just picked up Last Blade 2 at ebgames.com for $9.99...

[Deadpool]

Unreal Tournament - 9.99 @ bestbuy.com

MSR (Metropolis Street Racer) - 6.99 @ bestbuy.com

http://www.bestbuy.com/videogames/Detail.asp?m=937&e=11044072

A word of caution. Last time I ordered games from BB.com, they shipped them in some sorry bubble wrap and one of the jewel cases was busted -eek- The disc was OK, but one of the cases was smashed pretty good...that being said I placed my order for MSR right away :)

Enjoy :)

[bhk]

ShopKo has some bargains too. Yesterday, I picked up Ready to Rumble 2 for 7.99. Also picked up Soul Calibur for 19.99

[sniper308]

Not really a bargain but I was interested in the Gameshark Lite for Dreamcast ... is it any good, what exactly is it (a disc with codes or what?) I had one of the code things that plugged into the I/O port on the original PlayStation is it like that? Game Shark Lite says same as a Gameshark, but you supply the memory card. What would you consider a good price for a new one, etc ... any info would be helpful. I am mainly interested in it for Resident Evil Code Veronica and some other RPG like games (I hate putting hours and hours into a game, just to realize that I need to replay half of it to have enough ammo to beat a boss ... which is the situation I have now with RE)... anyway, thoughts on how well it works, and what price is a deal, etc... :johnwoo:

[Exzavier00]

Anyone know a good place to get VMUs these days? Preferrably the cool blue ones ;)

I've looked at eBay, but finding a deal could be tough....

[bhk]

I bought 2 from best buy recently. ToysRus also had them.

how much were they? if you guys just need a solid memory unit, you can get a 4x card for less than $15 shipped:

i've had one for a while and haven't had any problems...knock on wood. :D

[sniper308]

My local Best Buy's still have them here in central IN for $9.99

[bhk]

The VMUs were 9.99 at Best Buy.

[tofu]

has anyone seen copies of Virtual On anywhere besides ebay? All the best buys, kmarts and targets that I've checked are all gone.

[happyday]

great game! I have a backup I can swap you for if you are interested. Now that Switchouse is gone, swapping is much more difficult.

[Pato1]

I stopped by the local Circuit City to look for GBA games and I thought I hit the DC jackpot. They had a bunch of DC titles (NBA 2k2, NCAA 2k2, NFL2k2,Baseball 2k2 etc) on their clearance table along with N64 stuff. But all of the DC stuff rang up regular price at the register, $29-$39! :hscratch:

I asked the manager if this was a mistake and she said no; those were the discount prices. I guess they're not really trying that hard to get rid of their DC stuff; just clearing shelf space for Xbox et al.

[Pato1]

Blockbuster Video is having Buy 2 get 1 free on previously played games and found a nice selection of DC games. I think the sale is through 4 April. I found:

Baseball 2K2 $14.99
Tomb Raider $9.99
Soul Calibur Free ($9.99)

[spasmolytic]

I just got Last Blade 2 for 10 dollars at Best Buy.

[Pato1]

Dreamcast jump packs are $1.99 @ www.kbtoys.com

[cozmo]

ebgames.com has TremorPaks for $4.99 apiece. Looks like a good deal!!! :)

[Absolute Zero]

DVDtalkers,

As worthwhile as this thread was months and months ago, I think its time to shut her down. As I look over the list....the majority of titles can't be found at the stores they are listed for. Its pretty evident that if you find a DC game its going to be $20 or less. Being the originator of the post I just think its time to say goodbye and let everyone fend for themselves and be happy with the deals they find. However, the decision is not mine to make....its yours....and the mod...but mostly the mod. Anyway, I've enjoyed being able to bring you Dreamcast deals over the past year and look forward to creating a new thread for those of us who have money to burn. Thank you all for the support and enjoy your Dreamcast.

Sincerely,

Albert Collins

Well,you did start the thread but I think it won't do any good by shutting it down. I mean,if one of us finds a great deal sometime in the future on DC stuff,we'll want to let others know. Even if someone only posts something in the thread twice a month,it's still worth it to my mind.

[jhiter24]

Viva la "Dreamcast Bargains"

Let it live!!!

[Apocrypha]

Here is a bargain for all you fighter game fans and arcade enthusiasts
Enforcer Arcade Stick -9.99 @ebgames

I say let her stay until the bargains are truly dried up.

[Outlaw]

Thanks for this thread Absolute Zero, I saved a bundle and bought a lot of games I probably wouldn't normally have had I not saved the cash :D. I don't have a deal I just wanted to say thanks to you and everyone else who contributed.

Since you were the originator of the post, you can use the "Report this post to a moderator" link and ask for it to be closed if you want. Personally, I would prefer for it to stay open, just maybe unstuck. If a new deal comes along, it would still be open to post in. Those of us who are still interested would see that it's been bumped with a new deal.

After thinking about it, I think unsticking the post would be a good idea as opposed to closing.

By the way I'd just like to thank your for starting and maintaining this post. I bought my DC last year just when the crazy deals started happening. I found this post to be the best resource for finding more deals then anywhere else and I had fun contributing what ever I could.

After further review, this thread is being unstuck. Good luck everyone on getting deals on DC games. Please keep posting into this thread as you find great deals.

[Pato1]

Kbtoys.com has the 2k1 sports (NBA, NFL, MLB), Crazy Taxi2 for $4.99 & $6.99 respectively. There's that coupon floating around in this thread for $5 off.
